 Thank you Philippine and I would like to start by create all the people who are here this morning in order to listen to our experience and to share with us their feeling and also help us to improve our process. So before to start I would like quickly to present my organization called IED Africa based in Dakar and which is an independent non-profile organization which capitalized more than 15 years of experience in Francophone West Africa particularly and IED work on issues of sustainable development and citizenship in Africa which emphasizes on methodological innovation and participatory tools. So we have a story with IED because IED Africa is created in 2005 and he took over the Thailand program of IED set up in Senegal or in Dryland region in 1993 and IED now try to continue and reinforce learning and experience sharing with IED and we continue to work on sustainable agriculture through farming of innovation and family farming management of land and natural resources accountability and citizen control of public action and finally climate change and we have a very strong component on communication and knowledge sharing. So just after this quick presentation tradition to my organization I would like to come to our experience regarding this project. So but before to come to the methodology or to the approach on the field I would like to give you a very little insight in the context of Senegal regarding land governance and land issues. So Senegal is a salient country as you know and it is in West Africa and access to land in rural area is very crucial in Senegal because we have 70% of the population who live in a rural area and they try to make a lot of effort to improve the land governance. Since independence Senegalese governance have made a multi-legislative effort to increase rural land productivity and improve land channel security by setting up a several policy like decentralization of land administration and support the interests of small-holder and personal. Some effort to decentralization of land administration have proved somewhat illusional because the transfer government returns significant authority as we have so far. The national law set up in 1964 is a main legal reference as far as land is concerned in Senegal. In 1964 the government passes the national domains law that is what we call domain national which was intended to foster productive use of land and create an economic environment conditioned to agriculture export. The national domain law classified about 90% of all land in Senegal has a step on it. The property of land doesn't exist in Senegal regarding the rural land and Senegalese land is classified by zone. We have four zones. The first one is a urban zone which includes urban area or community settlement. The second zone is classified zone including land that is governed by specific status such as classified forest national park and other government protection area. The third land is a territorial land called zone the terroir including agriculture land and non-classified forest in the national domain and the last zone is called peonier zone which includes all remaining land and with the decentralization policy rural council have right to manage and allocate territorial land. So most of our important land is in the rural area and is called the peonier zone the terroir and this area is managed by rural council and since a few years rural council became a community community area. The central government has the authority to design select territorial land as needed for public utility and reclassified them as a peonier zone thereby removing them from the jurisdiction of the rural council and take it into account under its management. So the law also decentralizes the control over land to local governance body. Now the municipality and the rural community manage the land since 1972. This law provides the structure for the elected rural council and the ambit to their authority. As a representative of the rural community the rural council has the authority to allocate use right to land conditional over the land holders economically productive use of the land. The rural council has the authority to retake land that is not used productively and allocated to all the user. The law require all land transaction to be conducted through and recording with the rural council and the rural council has the authority to decide land dispute in this jurisdiction. All stakeholders now in this context recognize that the issues of rural development in Senegal is strongly linked to the insufficient of current legislation to make the difficulty land issues facing by the country. And since 2001 is a new constitution. They try to guarantee the gender equality and national land policy appear to foster gender neutral access to land. That is low. But despite the support for equitable access in the form of low in large measures social and religious norm continues to dictate women's land rights. Most women access to land through their husband and the security of the right is depending on maintaining the relationship with their husband. Women often have authority to determine what crops they will plant and manage in the cultivation. But their husband or male relative affect overall right to the land. Even if you have the decentralization of land allocation. Authority to rural council have not altered the effect of the customary and religion system on land right. Family representation on rural council is very rare or missing. Even if you have a parity low which give 50% place to the man and 50% place to the woman. But the present the leadership of women are missing at this stage where all the decisions are taken. The land allocation women by rural council tend to be smaller in size and less productive than split allocated to men. If we have two people who asked to formulate a demand for land the priority is given to the men. That is the national domain law has included the insecurity of women's land rights because women and other marginalized group may not have to do the most productive and most important land in a lot of part of the country. That is just a context that I would like to share before to go now to what we are doing in the two community. In this context which we start our work in two coming. Where the process will stop it due to the land grabbing conflict which is going to stop all implementation linked to the law. In general for those when we start the work. The first phases was emphasized on sensitization of women and all the different stakeholders. Engage it to work on the land. And we divided our process through four major components. The first one. Well the make a focus on capacity building. We have a lot of training to the women through their organization. Training for elected council for just bring them to understand the key challenge face it on the land we should land access to for women. The second component through this experience was the local dialogue. We have several conversations between the women. And between the women and the different stakeholders including the village chief, the local elected organization or previous sector working in Darroch who does this conversation bring actors to understand what kind of challenge they are facing and how they need to improve access to women land. And after this conversation several of them people work and decided to set up a land committee access extent to women. This group of women represent them in the meet during the meeting of elected council. They have the role to represent women to take part of decision making on land of the community of Darroch who does. Because in general when the decision making is taken by local community by elected community, elected council they decided to allocate land through the demand submit by those who want to access to the land. But in general they don't allocate land to women because they give the priority to men and they told that women are a member of the family farming. But if the chief of this farming ask to the land the priority is given to those who are the chief of women but the chief of this family because the women are a member of this family. But with this process we bring them to know that women are also need to access to the land for their own activity because they take part of the family they support the health expand and they need to develop their own activity even there are a member of the this family and when they set up a land committee they accept to see the women sitting around the table when they take decision when they take the decision to allocate land and to control the decision. When they step on the table they couldn't take part of the process. They are just there for control the process and for sharing the process with other women which they represent. The last thing in this process is the different conversations bring all the stakeholders to design a local participatory charter online government through the angle of gender sensitivity. After different conversation after different policy dialogue women and local elected decided to set up a different provision to negotiate a process for design different provision which will tend to change the thing in the at the local level in order to change the way to take decision on land issues and the land committee has a role to support women to submit more land demand to the committee. So now we are at the stage of adoption of this local charter because it takes a long time before to bring the elected community to adopt these schools because the provision includes some interesting things like one which tries to allocate at least 30% of land demand to women by year. So it's a very relevant provision but it is difficult to bring a elected council to accept this kind of provision. In this process we share it some we have it some lesson regarding to the process and also the content. The first lesson we have noted is the process improved relationship between women and local elected and create opportunity of dialogue on land issues because before this intervention there are not space where elected and women have the opportunity to discuss on to exchange and this process brings the space of dialogue. The second point that we are learning is advocacy and monitoring is a key dimension on the way to improve voice of women because there are a lot of process which aim to improve participation of women in the land decision making but it is still difficult to know what result have been achieved so far because we have an intervention we stop and another intervention come before to capitalize on what was doing before the last intervention. Another point that we would like to share regarding this process is access to land is not an end in itself because women used to say yes it is important to access to land but if we don't have capacity to explore to use this land men will say yes they want to access to the land and they don't have the means to explore it and that's why it is important to try to see if we could link access to land to access to other assets like financial issues or something like that so it is important to give men to the women to explore the land to work on this land. Another point learning during the process is negotiation process on land take a long time before to reach the goal and present some time some risk regarding the turnover of the elected because just after 5 years we need to our election could change the team the elected council and it's bring the process to stop or to restart I think it's important to take into account the fact that if it take a long time you could lost the process and the last learning is communication and knowledge management strategy is very relevant in this kind of process and it's allowed to share the lesson learning during this process and also to reinforce the network at the national level for upscaling all the process implemented at the local level that is just quickly what I would like to share with you.
